If you put the car on the track for a while you won't have to worry about the color anymore lol! Seriously though, nice find and thanks for sharing with the group.

Haha! Maybe at CFEST8, but we'll see.

The 6 piston Brembos fronts are a dealer installed option but you still have the factory grays on the rear. I understand you can now buy powder coated 1LE brake calipers that match but they have the 1LE logo on them.

Oh. I didn't realize they watched them with the 1le.

was wondering about that.... once a good heat cycle goes through, the color fades, right?

Assume they don't. Need to check some of the ZL1's that are regular track cars at CFest8 this July.

Good question - I thought the 1LE's brakes were the same or very close to the dealer installed Brembos

Ran the track at NCM and there was no issue at all. They look as good as when I first installed them.

The powder coater ordered the powder from Prismatic and through his experience he knew how much to order. I believe it was 1 lb. for the two rear calipers, but don't quote me on that. It is not paint.

There were two sets of decals. A smaller one which the powder coater used and a larger one that I asked him to use, but he thought he would have a difficult time making that size fit. If you are painting all four rather than powder coating, the larger decals can be used on the front, and the smaller ones can be used on the back.

When I ordered the decals from the source on eBay, I was very specific on the colors of the decals because I wanted to make sure they matched the front brakes. There were several back and forth's on that.

The eBay listing doesn't show the GM Performance stickers just the Brembo ones. Are they from different sellers?

Vtor_ZL1 · 12-05-2018, 05:18 PM

They are far enough apart no one would tell difference.
